  • Notes 
    • Robert II the Pious King of France

      Robert "The Pious" (b.c. 970 Orleans, France - d. July 20, 1031, Melun, France), King of France who took Burgundy into the French realm. Robert's domain was not extensive; and, to increase his power, he vigorously and tenaciously pressed his claim to fiefs as they became vacant. Thus, when the duke of Burgundy died without an heir (1002), Robert went to war against a rival claimant. Only in 1015, however, did he finally succeed in subduing the rich duchy. (The gain was transitory, for in 1032 Henry I granted Burgundy to his brother, Robert, and it thereafter remained for centuries outside royal control.) A patron of the Cluniac monastic movement, Robert apparently ruled firmly and judiciously in his own lands.
